What is your favorite underrated movie and why? What makes it underrated? How did you find it?

“you gotta cut both your daddy’s hands off, child. If you only cut one off, the cops know that trick.”

“Mumford”, the story of a drug addict who cleans up and creates the identity of a psychologist in a small town where he makes many friends. It’s an incredible all star cast with all kinds of sub plots and plots twists.

“McDonald’s is down the street. Now get out of my restaurant!”

Is it true that schizophrenia can sometimes be a demonic attack or black magic?

“The voices told me to dig, so I’m digging!”

“I’m never going down in that mine again!”

“The magic isn’t in what gets you together. The magic is in what keeps you together.”

Also, the “Station Agent” which is a perfect slice of life that could be maudlin but never panders or falls into melodrama. A tour de force.

I can’t speak highly enough of “The Salton Sea”, the Val Kilmer black comedy that is sad, hilarious, incredibly violent and has multiple surprise twist endings.

“Stir of Echoes” - this was the competition for “Sixth Sense” and came out the same time. I think it’s darker and much better than that movie and never gets credit for how good it is. It’s about and average guy and his average wife and their young son who sees dead people and how it impacts the entire nieghborhood. You don’t really see the end coming.

What measures do celebrities take to protect their images from being used for commercial purposes without permission? How much does this typically cost them?

“Last Stop Wonderland” about a hopeless romantic seeking love through the Personals in the Boston Herald while well-meaning but hopeless plumber seeking to change his life crosses her path again and again and neigther notice. One of Philip Seymour Hoffman’s first movies.

“A Very Good Year” with Russell Crowe and Marillon Cotillard, it’s his only comedy and she never looked sexier than in this movie. It was gentle and funny and not life changing but always worth a watch.

You know, there are so many.

“Have you ever gotten laid by a… you know… normal sized woman?”

“October Sky” the under-rated true story about how Homer Hickam overcame his start in a coal town in W. Virginia to become a rocket scientist along with his doomed poverty-stricken friends. The haunting soundtrack will get you.

Why do the Republican city officials at Springfield Ohio continue to deny that immigrants are eating pets to sabotage the Trump campaign, even though immigrant pet-eating is now widely believed to be true?

“Am I Danny Parker, meth freak or Tom Allen, trumpet player? What am I? Husband? Druggie? Judas Iscariot? Friend? Enemy? I don’t know anymore. Maybe you can tell me who I am, friend.”

“Mumford, why does everyone in this town like you?” “I don’t know. Why do you like me?”

“Winter’s Bone” - Jennifer Lawrence’s first movie as the star and she carries the movie. This is one of my all time favorite movies about death and desperation and violence and meth.

Why do atheists demand that everyone must accept their own self-definition? Is that any different from demanding others must accept their choice among 87 genders or be labeled as a bigot?
